A look in from right field. The smokestacks in the distance are across the Hackensack River in Kearny.

Jaroschak Field is on the west end of Lincoln Park, a Hudson County park. The field is reached by entering the main park section and then crossing over the Blakeslee Route and heading toward the Hackensack River. The field is several hundred feet from the river and is visible from Communipaw Avenue, which is part of the old Lincoln Highway (thus the park’s name).
